No Handheld Cell Phone Use While Driving in Md. Beginning Oct. 1

"Maryland will soon join D.C. in making the use of handheld cell phones while driving a primary offense.
Starting October 1, law enforcement officers can stop any driver they see using a handheld wireless device while operating a vehicle.
Getting caught will also cost you a little more. A first-time offender will be fined $75, a $35 increase. A second offense will cost $125 and increase to $175 for a subsequent offense -- up from the original $100 penalty."
